Finding a doctor who truly understands celiac disease can be challenging—many still rely on outdated info or dismiss lingering symptoms. Here's what's worked for me and others in the celiac community: 1. Start with a Gastroenterologist (GI) Specializing in Celiac Look for GIs affiliated with celiac research centers (e.g., Columbia University, ...

For those of us with celiac disease, fueling workouts safely can be tricky—especially when many sports gels, bars, and supplements are gluten landmines. I’ve been experimenting with gluten-free options that don’t sacrifice performance or digestion. A few favorites: Pre-Workout: Banana with almond butter + a dash of sea salt (electrolytes!) or homem...

Scott Adams replied to Kenz's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
By the way, when I did a Google search for "Gluten-free restaurants in Gadsden, AL" I see this, however, this doesn't mean you can't get contamination at these places: -

Contamination symptoms?
Scott Adams replied to xxnonamexx's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
There are test kits available (urine test) that can tell you if you consumed gluten in the last ~24 hours, but without that, there is no way to be certain. Eating out in restaurants in the primary source of contamination for most celiacs. Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional... -
I've not tried them, but making your own anti-inflammatory juice shots at home can be a great way to support gut health while ensuring ingredients are fresh, cost-effective, and tailored to your needs. Many store-bought options (like Thistle’s) are convenient, but DIY versions allow you to control ingredients and avoid additives. Some powerful anti-inflammatory i...

Scott Adams replied to Joel K's topic in Traveling with Celiac Disease
It sounds like an exciting plan, and there is a lot of great naturally gluten-free foods in the Caribbean islands, Mexico, Central America, etc. -

Research suggests a significant connection between celiac disease and dysautonomia, particularly conditions like POTS (Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome). Celiac-related autoimmune inflammation, nutrient deficiencies (e.g., B12, iron), and vagus nerve dysfunction may contribute to autonomic nervous system dysfunction. Some studies report improved...

EGD with flatten mucosa
Scott Adams replied to HeloIP's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests... -
